This has been my default hiking torch for about a year. It's built like a tank and extremely easy to use especially in the dark because of it's design .
Its also one of the few lights I know that can work on both the regular 21700 battery and also the slightly longer ones such as the Keeppower 21700 5000MaH.

[@PiercingTheDarkness]

Always a well put together video review. Your music selection is very similar to mine 🙂

[@FlashlightTech]

It is future garage what I think is well suited as it is calm :)

[@PiercingTheDarkness]

@@FlashlightTech Yes, Future Garage/Chillstep is a good genre.

Nice review.... great beam shots...

[@anthonypo2343]

Excellent review! The runtime graphs are very helpful. 👍 the stabilized output looks very good on the medium modes.

[@alanrabinowitz7111]

Thanks Richard! Those runtime graphs helped! I like seeing those flat runtimes on this convoy light and others like it. I want to get an SFT40 convoy light but with a tailswitch, so I might pick up an s16 or an m21b with an sft40 soon. I do have an s21e with an xhp50.2 r9050 and love it. Its a pretty good walking around light.

[@FlashlightTech]

Thank you for your comment! Yes you can try m21b

[@tjr9943]

​@@FlashlightTechHi, how much mAh was in your battery when you got 2hours in 3-d mode (~700lm)?

[@relayerrelayer8226]

Good review, nice regulation.
What your opinion regarding the temperature after stepdown, does the temperature control does it job? i've heard/read that the stabilized temperature is still on the higher side. Good light overall.
Thank you Richard,
Cheers🔦

[@FlashlightTech]

Temp is about 55C so I would say it is ok for such output at this size!

[@RVBrasil]

sensational comparison. your videos are very good. I have the sofirn c8g, wurkkos ts11, and sofirn sp32. I really liked this convoy m21F. is she better than sofirn c8g?

[@FlashlightTech]

Thank you for your support!

[@user-vl8ei8qu4o]

Здравствуйте Ричард ! Подскажите с каким диодом купить s21e , чтобы он светил чистым белым светом ? Смотрю sft40 6500 k подходит , а может есть лучше?

[@azog2978]

Привет.
Есть ли в фонаря функция повербанка?

[@michaelbowman7398]

I haven't seen the runtimes on the Anduril version, but it uses a FET driver, so won't be as well regulated.

[@alanrabinowitz7111]

Oh that's disappointing. I was gonna order one last time but didn't.
